Effects of Genes, Sex, Age, and Activity on BMC, Bone Size, and Areal and Volumetric BMD

Quantitative genetic analyses of bone data for 710 inter‐related individuals 8–85 yr of age found high heritability estimates for BMC, bone area, and areal and volumetric BMD that varied across bone sites. Activity levels, especially time in moderate plus vigorous activity, had notable effects on bo...
